Yet the spell crumbles, a word from Seira returning the magic to whence it came, fleeing the sorcerers as if it was never theirs to command.

At the same time ethereal armor coats the other two ravens, planes of force gathering over them as...

Init is Alicia (42) > Amaryl (36) > Seira (19) > Antenora (14) > Raven Riders (12) > Ravens (11)

Ravens are up.


Wounded and burning, the raven on Seira lurches forward, wounds healing before Seira's eyes as it tries to peck and talon her apart, big, oversized moves as much clumsy as powerful.

Does not defeat your DR.


The talons rip into your forearm, tearing apart red scales and drawing blood - catching in a perfect groove and powering through, a fluke hit that nonetheless spills your blood. As this happens the other ravens slowly circle around, positioning about 100ft away, one on each of Seira's sides. Ahead more are gathering above the castle as these three engage you.

Alicia.

Flying forward two hundred feet she'll lag a little behind Antenora at first, but she can make it up later. Point is this lets Alicia unload some spells to support Seira at a distance, a trio of bright rainbow blasts erupting around each of the ravens currently threatening her!

2 swift and 1 normal radiant assaults, one per raven/rider combo.

The following are dazed: Raven 2, rider 1-1, rider 1-2, rider 2-1, rider 2-3, rider 3-1, rider 3-3.


The burst of power barely seems to injure the ravens, wounds healing in a flash, yet the multiheaded beasts are reeling, riders knocked back and away, the blasts of light momentarily illuminating the darkened Air sky.

Init is Alicia (42) > Amaryl (36) > Seira (19) > Antenora (14) > Raven Riders (12) > Ravens (11)

'Seira, can you finish the one I wounded off?' Amaryl sends to her, already moving. She leaps into the air, a blur of a moment as she races towards the dazed raven, a flurry of arrows flying true.

Today: Aggressive combat archery. Also, forgot her +4 from greater arrow mind, but irrelevant since this is easy shots for her.


Arrow after arrow plunges into the second raven, burning it alight like the first, exploding within it. As it burns, the scent of cooking bird-meat carried on the wind?

Seira, go.

'Probably,' Seira muses. She had miscalculated the distance, however, and there is now only one way to actually make it. She shrinks into her other form, and darts towards the beast in the ensuing confusion!

Anastasia

Seira shrinks, going from dragon to humanoid. In an instant she is a blur, blade slicing through the raven in a blur. She passes by it, and a moment later the burning raven is sliced apart in a dozen directions, plummeting into air, its riders falling with it. Got them!

Acrobatics succeeded.

Init is Alicia (42) > Amaryl (36) > Seira (19) > Antenora (14) > Raven Riders (12) > Ravens (11)


Antenora nods to you and flies ahead and to the right, positioning with her wings flapping furious, lining up with the active raven.

Positioning for Antenora. Riders are up.

The one remaining second rider that isn't a dazed mess, utters a single profane word, a lancing beam flying at Amaryl.

> roll 1d20+22 touch AC
<Kobot> Kotono rolled 1d20+22 touch AC --> [ 1d20=17 ]{39}

Touch AC is currently 44, so miss.


Yet Amaryl flips back in the air, drawing another arrow in retort and lining up as shot, as meanwhile the one remaining and functional caster on the third raven screams, "T-that's Seira Aryn and Alicia Reynes!" He screams in Auran, easily understood by the both of you. HE fumbles and undoes straps keeping him in place, leaping into the air and plunging down, retreating away.

Ravens. Only the third one is still alive and able to act.

The third raven closes in with Seira, coming within 60ft. Both heads then rear back, a great tornado of wind breathed out at her as meanwhile, the rest of the ravens gather, a pack of approximately nine, gathering above the Raven's Nest.

Ref, Seira.

Actually strike that, you can't fail the save. My bad.

Yet Seira twists out of the way of the winds, body contorting around a whirlwind before a word of power bursts the winds apart, burning with golden fire.

Alicia, go.

Ebiris

With Antenora going to the right, Alicia pushes in on the left but she spares the time to glance up at the ravens gathering above the fortress and rears her arm back before she flings a streak of sunlight up to detonate on the one in the middle of the pack!

Flying 200 feet then casting sunlance

From afar, Alicia's sunlance flies. It explodes amid them, a detonation of searing light that makes them scream, leaving the ravens and riders reeling. Meanwhile Amaryl darts and leaps back, firing away on her prey as it tries to recover, "Fall!" she cries.

Seira uses this chance to shoot off towards the group of nine behemoths, turning into her dragon form to slam into the nearest one with all the power she can bring to bear! Meanwhile, a very confused astral deva appears in the mix of blinded ravens, perfectly situated to flank with Seira!
